​**Toronto Stoics: Monthly Meetup** ​*Modern Wisdom. Practical Living. Local Community*. ​We are a monthly gathering dedicated to exploring Stoic philosophy and its real-world application. Whether you are a long-time practitioner or just curious about how ancient wisdom can help navigate modern life, you are welcome here. ​*What to Expect* ​Our meetups are casual, conversational, and focused on utility. Each month, we gather at a member's home in Toronto to deconstruct a specific Stoic quote or concept. We move past the theory to discuss how these ideas actually work when the pressure is on—helping us build resilience, focus on what we can control, and refine our character. ​*Why Stoicism?* ​Simply put, Stoicism was designed to help people live their best possible lives. It is a framework for: - ​Maximizing Clarity: Focusing energy on what is within our power. - ​Reducing Friction: Managing negative emotions like anxiety and anger. - ​Honing Virtue: Cultivating the strength of character to handle any situation. ​Stoicism doesn’t require hours of meditation or a degree in philosophy. It is a "boots-on-the-ground" toolkit for finding tranquility and staying effective at any stage of life. ​**Join us monthly to find a little more perspective and a lot more practical wisdom.**

**Sunday\, April 19\, 2026 \| 7:00 PM** (doors open 6:45 PM) **Hybrid Event —** in person at Toronto Theosophical Society, 792 Glencairn Ave., North York **Join online via Zoom:** [https://us02web.zoom.us/j/88064619247?pwd=0WvJAiLDKyQXu6bi0UmlMOkgjmVg59.1](https://us02web.zoom.us/j/88064619247?pwd=0WvJAiLDKyQXu6bi0UmlMOkgjmVg59.1) Free and open to the public **What Can I Do? Invoking our Sacred Warrior Archetype** In times of collective suffering and moral uncertainty, it's easy to fall into helplessness, rage, or inconsolable grief — responses that are deeply understandable, yet quietly paralyzing. This evening, we turn to a more demanding and more fruitful question: **What is *my* place in the work of personal and collective renewal?** We'll explore this question across four interconnected dimensions: * inner psychological work, * spiritual practice as service, * authentic relational dialogue, and * practical action in the world. Each of these plays a distinct role in the broader process of healing — and the evening is designed to show how they reinforce and complete one another. Rather than staying purely in the realm of ideas, we'll move into direct experience. The highlight of the evening will be a hands-on introduction to KORASOMI — a synthesis of the Korason Method for Authentic Voice & Dialogue and Hakomi — a mindfulness- and somatic-based practice for invoking the "Sacred Warrior" archetype within each of us. Through conscious sound, authentic movement, and chakra work, Hugh will guide us in learning a technique you can take home and continue to practice on your own. Underlying the whole evening is a simple but radical invitation: to refuse dehumanization, to act without hatred, and to understand that rebuilding integrity — personal or collective — is work each of us carries a small but real portion of. **About the speaker:** Hugh Smiley has been walking a path of inner inquiry, healing, and service for over four decades. His journey began early — shaped by his father's healing hands, a classical music training that led to his ARCT from the Royal Conservatory of Toronto at 17, and a deepening interest in spiritual and metaphysical studies that ignited during his university years, including a budding fascination with esoteric astrology. A pivotal chapter unfolded while living among indigenous peoples in Paraguay, where Hugh began meditating in nature and developed a healing practice rooted in shamanic chanting, bodywork, knowledge of the chakras, and the subtle bodies. This synthesis eventually gave rise to the Korason Method for Authentic Voice and Dialogue — a body-based, heart-centred approach to authentic expression and deep listening that he has since taught in 10 countries across 4 continents. Hugh trained directly with Ron Kurtz, founder of the Hakomi Method — a somatic-oriented, mindfulness-based approach to assisted self-discovery — becoming certified as both therapist and teacher. His therapeutic work weaves together Hakomi, the Korason Method, dreamwork, shamanic journey, gestalt, and an understanding of the subtle anatomy, creating a rich inner landscape for healing and self-knowledge. In 1988, following an inner vision, Hugh co-created Heartsong Hill — a 50-acre forested retreat on Georgian Bay — where eight years of transformative teaching and learning unfolded. He later completed a degree in Peace and Conflict Studies at the University of Toronto, and was awarded the Beattie Scholarship to research dialogue methods with NGOs in Cairo, which led to the founding of NACAD, the New AndaLuz Centre for Authentic Dialogue. He is currently supporting youth peace-building efforts with the ROHI Foundation in Cameroon. Hugh continues to offer counselling, creative voicework, and meditation coaching in Toronto, and leads a biweekly Mindful Circle online. His life's work is a living example of how inner transformation and outer service are not separate — but two expressions of the same journey.

Teachers of the highest order. These are the ECK Masters. Chief among them is the Mᴀʜᴀɴᴛᴀ, the Living ECK Master. As an inner and outer spiritual teacher, his role is to awaken the God-knowledge already within you. This discussion, following an earlier online and in-person ECK Light and Sound Service, features a pre-recorded talk by Sri Doug Kunin, the spiritual leader of Eckankar, followed by facilitated breakout discussions. *"It’s the same eternal mission for every Living ECK Master: to awaken the God-knowledge already within the human heart. To help people become aware of who they really are – Soul, a unique, eternal, divine spark of God."* **\~ Sri Doug Kunin**, Spiritual Leader of Eckankar This series of discussions enables you to meet with like-minded, like-hearted, spiritually oriented co-learners who want to raise their spiritual IQ, not only to access higher states of positivity and balance, but also to add tools to their spiritual toolkit that help them function with more love, grace, and service in daily life. *"Eckankar already has students in 120 countries. While many people may not know about us, we have a global presence. Eckankar is not here to convert anyone. We honour individual choice and belief. Do the ECK tools and techniques help you find truth? Only you can decide.* *But even as a wide variety of our digital communications are expanding Eckankar’s worldwide presence, it’s not about the quantity of people we reach, but the quality of connection.* *Eckankar is only as good as its ability to help people connect with the divine principle. Are we able to do that in a way anyone can understand and apply? That’s key."* **\~ Sri Doug Kunin,** Spiritual Leader of Eckankar **Donations** These are free events; however, your donations are most gratefully received!

Join us for this free, in person meeting on the subject of betrayals, losses and how to get over them so you can build lasting relationships. Do you want more motivation and confidence to build lasting relationships? Are you burdened by a stressful relationship? Unhealthy relationships can trigger feelings of anger, despair or self-doubt. They can create dwindling spirals of fights and seeking to make-up, or trying to “pin the blame” on someone or something. If you don’t find the RIGHT reasons, or select the correct sources of the problem, the problem can just get worse and worse. Whether in love or personal ties, with friends or at work, our life really IS affected by the quality of our relationships. Good ones can promote pleasure and survival, while less optimum ones can lead to annoyance, anger, self-doubt, stress, or even affect our health and ability to survive well. Whether you are suffering from a divorce, or a painful break-up, don’t know who to trust (or who to CHOOSE) as a partner, friend, boss or employee - the anxiety of relationship troubles can really make a mess of things. Maybe you’ve suffered a betrayal, or are dealing with hostility or criticalness or invalidation. Dwindling relationships can involve destructive behavior, where we hurt those we love, or start succumbing to self-destructive thoughts, attitudes or behaviors that spiral out of control and affect much more than our immediate relationship. Past losses in love or life can affect how we act or react to new people and situations and hold us back from even starting to create new, possibly great relationships! How can one get back onto a saner course of action? Come to our Meetup, where we can introduce you to some of the knowledge, tools and techniques of the breakthroughs in the field of the mind that we can apply to this ever important area of life: human relationships! Break free from self imposed limitations Here we will discuss: • How to “erase” the trauma of past hurts and betrayals so that one isn’t always repeating past mistakes. • Why and how do the negative emotions of others affect you? • Why is my partner withdrawing and what can I do about it? • Why do we sometimes feel compelled to hurt the ones we love? • Fights & arguments - what's really behind them? • What underlies “corrosive criticism” or the need to invalidate self or others? • How one can stably change one’s outlook on life so they can affect positive change? • Where do compulsive destructive behaviors come from and what can be done about them? • How to form closer bonds & keep growing the relationships with the people you care about? • How to enhance one’s own ability to survive and create positive healthy relationships whether in love, family & friendships or in work, business or one’s career? Relationships can be hard and life itself IS challenging. Why not arm yourself with the knowledge and breakthroughs that have been made about the mind, mental reactions & interpersonal relationships, so that one has better awareness and control over themselves and life in general. Learn where painful experiences are “stored” and how they can unknowingly affect us. You will also find out how one can “erase” those past painful experiences so that one is free to move forward without being tripped up by the past. Learn too, about what can lead some people to become “toxic” personalities and how to identify those traits in others so you won’t be tripped up trusting the wrong person. Our free Meet-ups occur in a safe environment where one can learn, without fear of judgment or criticism, and without the recommendation of harmful mental techniques or therapies, just how YOU can get yourself onto a happier & more successful path: in love & in life. We look forward to having you join us! This class is held at the Dianetics and Scientology Life Improvement Center of Central Ohio.

This session introduces Squad: an open-source framework for multi-agent orchestration that lets you define teams of AI agents with specific roles, responsibilities, and expertise. We'll progress from Copilot basics to the Copilot CLI, explore how Agents add autonomy, and see how Instructions and Skills let you customize agent behavior. Then, the climax: a live demo where a Squad team of 3 agents (Lead, Developer, Tester) stands up and builds a working application in real-time, showcasing true multi-agent collaboration. Whether you're new to AI or exploring how to scale your use of Copilot, this session will show you what's possible when agents work as a team. **YouTube Link** TBD
